Episode notes
Coffee's Polyphenol Benefits
- Coffee's polyphenols support gut microbiome diversity and mitochondrial health.
- They act as mitochondrial uncouplers, promoting mitogenesis and protecting mitochondria.
Avoid Dairy & Sugar in Coffee
- Avoid adding cream, real sugar, or milk to coffee to retain its benefits.
- Instead, use unsweetened coconut milk, allulose, or MCT creamers for sweetness and creaminess.
Skip Dairy, Use Non-Dairy Milks
- Avoid dairy in coffee because it binds polyphenols and contains immune-reactive 5GC sugar.
- Try non-dairy milks like unsweetened coconut, walnut, or hazelnut as alternatives.
